Infant erections?

So I have a question for you mommies of boys. I have a 5 month old little boy and I also babysit my 2 month old nephew. My son is not circumcised but my nephew is and it seems like everytime I change my nephew's diaper he has an erection. My son never has one so I'm wondering what is normal and if you ladies think there is a link between erections and circumcisions.

Erections are normal in both circed and uncirced boys. From what I've read, they tend to be more visually obvious with circumsized boys than uncirced. Also, I have also read that circed boys *sometimes* are more sensitive to stimulation, since they don't have the foreskin covering the more sensitive areas.

Disclaimer: my post is not totally based on personal experience, as I only have 1 son and he is circumsized. It is based on my experiences and the experiences of other moms that I've had circumcision discussions with.

Hahaha! It is totally a pre- pee everwhere sign! Myvhusband was just asking about it. He joked he didn't want to google it cuz he didn't want to get in trouble for child porn! He was saying, maybe they just get morning wood like guys do. I dont like to think about it like that! Lol

My son isn't circumcised either he has a very very mild case of hypospadia and they can't do the surgery until he's 6 months old because of a) the anistesia sp? and b) the dr said they start to get more erections around that age and they need it to do the surgery. But my son tends to get them once in a while too. So I believe its perfectly normal.

to MCon-Pre-pee is right! HA! And it goes right up onto his clothes!I don't like to think of it as morning wood either. Any way you think of it is still a little bit awkward, at least for me. lol I thought I did something to cause his erection the first time it happened when I was bathing him. Well, I guess I did cause it, but you know what I mean. Funny how we bring our thoughts into innocent situations like that.
